I've used them for about 2 years now, I soak a blue elk over night then press it between two pieces of hardwood in a vice. You don't have a big fat tip like other new tips and they are easy to put on because you don't have to worry about centering a 13mm tip on a 13mm shaft when you've pressed...

Does anyone know what kind of cue (apparently a custom) has the initials KC on it?

seems alot like cowboy

I find that Wych is one of the few that seems to get names right, I find most butcher names (of guys they generally know, or could at least ask) so bad you'd think there was 4 guys playing each game.

Doolys is for the masses cheap balls, cloth try checking out some of the real pool halls. In Dartmouth Burnside snooker club is your best bet the best snooker tables around with some bar boxes and a couple 9 footers. Shannon 8 ball is decent (haven't been there since they had a fire) can't...

The rolling stones have a table set up backstage for every concert.

What was the high run for the tourny and is there a prize for it.

I like hitting the 5 into the eight, I don't like the two into the one you have to hit it perfect to clear the two and not double kiss. Hitting the first shot the cue ball is always going to be safe and if you've stuck your opponent on the two he's going to have to come up with a good shot to...

It's a bigger transition than most people think, a couple months practice even for talented players like Mierak and Rempe is not going to be enough to compete with guys that have trained there whole lives. The only North Americans that have made any impact overseas have come from Canada (most...

I think in most cases that it's not that the players skills have diminished so much as the quality of there opponents get better.

Twirlers and whistlers.

It's from an engineering class at Dalhousie university (Halifax NS) what I noticed is they picked up more sponsers than most tournaments do.

Besides the obvious long pots snooker will show you the importance of leaving natural angles to move around the table, if you get on the wrong side playing pool it's not a big deal to go multiple rails or spin your way out of trouble. IMO for what snooker can do for your pool game there's almost...

I like banking the one, maybe aiming fat so it goes off the 10/15 and ensuring I say in the stack with the cue ball.

I don't think it's a coincidence that many of the players mentioned have backgrounds in games that have higher standards (14.1,snooker). Steve Davis should be at the top of any list, I may be biased mentioning Luc Salvas who always has a smile on his face.

They come to Canada to play some snooker and the "target" is Bill Wiebernuik, they watched him play and leave never trying to make a game saying he had just been beaten by someone else and figured the last thing he'd want to see is an American road player. I just doubt that a guy who played...

After the cue ball contacts the rail the follow becomes reverse spin, if it's not a full hit try using low stuff which will turn into follow when it hits the rail.

what kind of tables?

I don't see anything on this site about pool I see snooker and just about every other game, I have an account.

For those interested here are the brackets for the Canadian 8 ball championships http://www.billardquebec.com/championnat_national_2006/championnat-national-2006.htm
